One of the more general Debian lists?

What I use, which works for me is the following:

[stewart@dystopia ~]# cat /etc/exports 
/home/user1/final		10.0.0.0/255.255.0.0(ro)
/home/ftp/pub/rh-6.1-srpms	10.0.0.0/255.255.0.0(ro)
/home/ftp/pub/rh-6.1-updates	10.0.0.0/255.255.0.0(rw,no_root_squash)

-Rms
